SHIMANO Spheros SW A Spinning Reel

SHIMANO Spheros SW A Spinning Reel

The jack of all trades in the saltwater realm, Shimano redesigned the Spheros SW series of saltwater spinning reels to conquer both offshore and inshore waters. Now featuring Shimano's flagship Infinity Drive technology to improve pinion gear support and enhance the overall drive gear design, Spheros SW provides anglers with increased winding power under load when cranking against hard-fighting game fish. Wielding both X-Protect and X-Shield for improved water resistance for increased durability in the harsh saltwater environment, Spheros SW fortifies an IPX8 water-resistant-rated body. Now available in seven different sizes, the new 14000 and 18000 sizes span the gap between 10000 and 20000 models for a broader range of applications within the Spheros SW series of reels. From jigging for groupers or amberjacks, to tossing lures at cobia and football-size bluefin tuna, or free-lining live bait to snook or striped bass, the Spheros SW series will provide dependable performance for anglers targeting prized game fish.

Features:

• Precision Cold-Forged HAGANE Gear: The change from zinc die-cast gears to precision cold-forged HAGANE GEAR has increased strength. The light weight of the gears themselves also contributes to a lighter reel. Ideal for harsh SW scenes.
• Carbon Cross Washer: This reliable washer is made of a material with excellent abrasion and heat resistance, and is installed on SHIMANO's large spinning reels. It can firmly respond to unexpectedly large fish.
• Threaded Handle: As with higher-end models, a screw-in handle fixing structure is employed. Direct winding is possible without any slack.
